Moses - A Tragic Ballad Lyrics
How can you forget the past, like you have... You walked awayThis is an elegy, A meditation on memories, And when I wake myself up, And find my way back home, I'll pretend I didn't come here, I'll pretend I didn't shed a tear, I'll pretend that I'm OK, You wouldn't care anyway, Cause ya hardly ever call to say, Hello how are you doing today, Hello, oh and I forgot to say, Take care tonight when you're going your way.How can you forget the past, like you have... You walked awayNothing shocks me any more, Like a dream I've seen many times before, I try to hold steadfast, be strong and sure, Cause you say you don't know what you saw, But you lie so much I've learned to ignore you, But I never even wanted to, I guess I lost hope in that idea, Of respecting you, You never remember the times that you let me down, And hell, I still remember the sound late at night like it was all around me.See my head was in the clouds, I didn't even know why I was alone, I didn't even know why when I put my ears to the ground, couldn't hear the earth talking to me, or why I couldn't fly when I wanted to, Cause dreams and reality melt together slowly when you're only the age of three.I isolated myself in a world of space and fantasy, In ancient worlds long gone under the sea, remember me, I used to hear in my dreams, Like an imprint in my genes, these childhood memories.How can you forget the past, like you have... You walked away
